Bugs happen, this isn't the first nor the last one. If you can't live with
it, install an older CD or whatever. Complaining won't get you anywhere,
you got KDE for free (no charge from us, at least).

It will be copied to a tempfile, since xmms's desktop file doesn't have %U
(or if it does, it has to also include X-KDE-Protocols=3D<list of protocols=

When you know enough about a system to write scripts, you also know enough
to copy paths instead of URLs (e.g. by browsing file:/ instead of media or =
system,
which nobody forces you to browse).
